4. What license does Iliad use?

6. What is cool about Iliad?

Iliad is based on reusable stateful widgets, Iliad lets you build powerful dynamic applications easily. It allows you to trigger smalltalk code when an user clicks on a link or submit a form instead of bothering you with low level details.

7. What else is cool about Iliad?

Iliad automatically uses AJAX requests to update the client state, and it will nicely degrade to normal requests if javascript is not enabled, so you don't have to bother about that.
